Start your own little plastic recycling workshop

Modular
The machines are made of different components that can be repaired, replaced, or customized

Open Source
The blueprints and tutorials for our machines will always be freely available online, for anyone to access and use

Inclusive
By using basic materials, tools, and universal parts, the machines can be built all over the world

Built yourself
PreciousPlastic has created a series of video tutorials that are easy to follow and help you get started building the machines

Extrusion

Extrusion is a continuous process where plastic flakes are inserted into the hopper and extruded into a line of plastic. These lines can be used to make new raw materials such as 3d printing filament, make granulated plastic, spinned around a mold, or used by you in new and creative ways.

Injection

Plastic flakes are heated and injected into a mold. It’s a relatively quick process which is well suited for creating small objects repeatedly. You can make the molds completely yourself by using CNC mills or lathes, or by simply welding them.

Compression

Plastic is heated inside the oven and slowly pressed into a mold with a carjack. Well suited for making large and more solid objects, the oven itself is also a great machine for prototyping and making plastic tests with.

Shredding

Plastic waste is shredded into flakes which will be used in the other machines to create new things. You can select the output size of these flakes by changing the sieve inside the machine to create different patterns and processes.
